This patch simply adds more items and item buffs and psynergy and in return buffs the game like crazy to refresh the game as a whole.I have decided to ditch caledor's mod as it breaks the game by simply adding too many items apperently. either way, it is better without than to release an unplayable game, right? On the flip side, there will be a ton of items and such for you to enjoy! This mod also features 4 legendary elemental swords. gaia blade, sol blade, arctic blade, and tempest blade.Each one is buffed to be the same plus its own elemental effects. There will also be no story change whatsoever.

ty for the positive feed back. as for the stat boosting items, you can buy them indefinitly. however, it costs 10x its original value which is 5000. furthermore, since the game features extremely buffed bosses, your honestly better off getting e new weapon if able to. in the next update, more items/psynergy and most importantly more enemies wlll be added. good luck traveling the seas. deadbeard will randomly appear and is almost just as strong as aqua hydra but with hp buff!

That is OP as hell. That's a super easy grind to basically max out stats. It's not like money is hard to come by in this game, you know?

Plus, if you make it too expensive, then the items you find in the world basically break the economy.

bosses have buffed exp and coin grant. starting from the first boss, the player gets 1xxx coins then the 2nd boss grants 2xxx coins etc. i am playing through the whole game to test stuff. btw is there a way to switch out items in chests and set djinns to party members so they join the party with whatever djinn?

i have barely any knowledge of it. i can prob learn it along the way. do u mind helping? i currently need to replace the teleport lapis in the chest in mars lighthouse with a fire scarf and also set all djinn to isaac's party to eliminate the need for transfer

Fox: Okay, so that Summon Night games adds the fram number to the seed, before generating another seed via mul/add.... (GS1-GS3 never adds the fram number.) ... So um, that makes sense! ; Summon Night: ((seed + frame) * 0x343FD + 0x269E3C) >> 0x10 ; Which is also on the list here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

Fox: Yes, and there could be contests. Maybe ones where 1st/2nd/3rd place get a cash reward, but eh. Dunno.... Kind of thinking about making a topic about how people got their job, and what was their experience. (e.g. Did they use references of people already working in the job, and various other things.)

Majora: Import old forum posts for reference, perhaps take posts containing important info like documentation away from the old stickied forum post model and make them into their own pages on a site with an in-built search bar. Might help with SEO, too. If nothing else, perhaps whipping them into PDFs and hosting them via Scribd? The possibilities are boundless when it comes to restructuring a site

December 09, 2017, 04:20:02 AM

Majora: Just a nice idea to have even if it doesn't come to fruition. Updating, modernizing, always a good idea. Could probably do something pretty nifty using a good Wordpress theme

December 09, 2017, 04:15:45 AM

Majora: Would be kind of neat to do something like that for GSHC. Could change it up a bit to show all tweets/instagram posts/facebook posts/golden sun subreddit posts all in one sidebar. It would be cool in that it gives the site it's on (and the topic in general) appear more lively and active, which is a plus

December 09, 2017, 04:14:19 AM

Majora: That does sound interesting. One cool thing I've seen some sites use is a sort of unique take on a sidebar option that acts like a social media integration (like, "See GSHC's latest Tweets"). It displays activity from a variety of related sites, such as Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

December 09, 2017, 12:58:53 AM

Fox: And the way it'd work via code is not that all users would instantly get nicknames the minute you register... but rather, the moment you view a name if it doesn't have a nickname, it gets one. (My Thoughts.)

December 09, 2017, 12:53:55 AM

Fox: (I was thinking that it would be "Name (Nickname)" ... The nickname is what you first known the user as, and you can change that yourself... and the Name is what the user wants to be called... Something like that.

December 09, 2017, 12:47:56 AM

Fox: So like... for starters, one idea I had was to make it so anyone can name anyone... much like how it works on Skype, and you (the namer) would be the only one to see it, and such...

Fox: Now that I have thought about it a bit more, would I be right to assume that GSHC would be one of the most interesting websites to administrate, or no? It's sad to see not much going on with it. == I almost want to make a concept website at some point. :D Anyway, how is everyone doing today?

December 06, 2017, 12:12:59 AM

Fox: Like... Start using Github or something... Do like how many of those other projects such as Citra (WIP 3DS Emulator) does. Etc.

December 06, 2017, 12:08:12 AM

Fox: No idea. I just wish OpenGoldenSun would release it as unfinished, but oh well.

December 05, 2017, 06:52:09 AM

MaxiPower: Bummed out that the open golden sun project is dead it seems with no actitivy in close to a year at this point. Is there any hope left in any other projects?

Fox: (When I say research, mainly refering to the data in the game, though checking websites can count to a degree.)

November 27, 2017, 09:52:27 AM

Fox: Maybe. But Dark Dawn is meh, hahah... I still research it, though, because data can be interesting.
